Personal Information
We know privacy is important to you and so we promise to use your information in accordance with this privacy policy. We will only request information from you which is necessary for the evaluation of your application for insurance and, if such application is accepted by us, for the creation, operation and administration of your insurance policy. Any personal information you provide to us including your (and any other person's travelling for whom you are seeking to arrange insurance) name, address, date of birth, telephone number and e-mail address, will not be used by us or released, sold, or rented to any entities or individuals outside of The Medical Screening Company Limited except as set out in this privacy policy.
We hold personal data on security systems designed to prevent unauthorised access to your personal data.
We will hold up to-date accurate information about you, as a client, which you can check (in return for a reasonable fee) by contacting us at The Medical Screening Company Limited, Monitor House, 2a Belmont Road, Sutton, Surrey SM2 6DW.

We never disclose information about customers to any other person or organisation except in accordance with this privacy policy.

Security
We follow generally accepted industry standards to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it.
When you request a quotation or apply to purchase an insurance policy online, we use secure socket layer technology (SSL) that encrypts all information you input before it is sent to us. This ensures that the information is reasonably protected against unauthorised interception.
We also follow security procedures in the storage and disclosure of information which has been given to us, to provide an adequate level of security for that information.
It is important to remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Credit Card Transactions
For online credit card transactions, we use third party services to encrypt your payment details utilising their SSL (secure socket layer) technology.
Using your credit card to make purchases via this site is a secure way to confirm your purchase. TMSC has put a number of security steps in place to give you confidence when buying online. The communication of all sensitive information, including personal details and credit card information, is encrypted through the use of our secure server and your web browser. This means that information can only be exchanged between you and TMSC, and that no third party can access this data whilst it is being sent over the internet. All policy details are then held on a secure computer.
We do not retain live records of credit card information on our internet web servers after the payment transaction have been completed.
Credit card fraud and misuse is a growing problem. If anyone else has access to your credit cards and uses them to pay any for any goods, services or fees in your name and address, with or without your permission, you are responsible.
We work against credit card fraud, and we try to protect our customers in every way possible. TMSC does not condone credit fraud, but we will however not be liable for any losses suffered by clients due to credit card misuse or fraud.
